There will be great flexibility in choosing theoretical approaches and cases, which can range from institutionalization processes of new biogas technologies such as liquified biogas in production and use to attempts and strategies to achieve changes in policies/law/narratives or imaginaries at the national level, or exporting the Swedish Biogas Model to other countries. International case comparisons are also welcome.
